What is useful to know about the safety of a folding bed?

The safety of a [wall] bed hinges on correct installation. Because considerable forces are exerted on the frame and mechanism when opening and closing the bed, a robust wall mounting is absolutely essential. A [wall] bed should never be left freestanding; it must be securely anchored to a load-bearing wall. With Easy Living models, we use high-quality gas springs to counteract gravity. 

This ensures that the bed does not simply fall down, but opens in a controlled and smooth manner. The mechanism takes the effort out of it for you, allowing even heavier models to be operated with one hand. 

Do you opt for a vertical or horizontal folding system?

When purchasing one of the 5 best-selling wall beds, you have the choice between two different systems, each with its own advantages depending on the space. A vertical system is the most popular option. With this system, the bed stands upright against the wall, similar to a tall wardrobe. This system is particularly beneficial if you have sufficient ceiling height and limited wall width. 

When dealing with a sloping roof or a very low ceiling, a horizontal Murphy bed, also known as a ‘sideways model’, can be a great solution. With this type, the bed lies lengthwise against the wall. This takes up more width on the wall, but the cabinet is significantly lower, which can optically keep the space feeling larger and is perfect for fitting under a window or in a loft room.
